Summertime = Dragonflies

Common Whitetail



Meadowhawk
 
Mating Bluet

Pacific Forktail

Western Pondhawk (female)



not sure what this one is


I walked around the water at Tualatin Hills Nature Park this afternoon looking for Dragonflies. I was pleased to find many. I took a stab at ID and feel confident on a few of them, but would appreciate being corrected if I'm wrong.

Butterflies were around too. I saw a swallowtail and Lorquin's Admiral in addition to this Spring Azure.





This Bullfrog was hoping to get a dragonfly too.
 


While sitting and waiting for dragonflies to land I saw a robin fly into a tree across the creek and sit on her nest.
